But our journey doesn't stop there. As we head into Q4, we're ready to finish the year strong and set our sights even higher. 🌠 We're excited to take on new challenges, explore uncharted territories, and drive innovation.

So, let's channel that momentum, embrace every opportunity, and make the year's final quarter one to remember. Together, we'll turn our ambitious goals into remarkable achievements. 💪

Our team had a blast at Walk For Hope this past weekend in Raleigh! APC was able to raise nearly $700 for this year's event. The weather was great and we loved seeing such an awesome turnout! Today is World Mental Health Day - we remind you to practice self-care and prioritize your well-being!

We are excited about the 35th annual Walk For Hope this weekend October 8th. APC team members participate and/or donate to this great cause each year.

100% of the money raised by participants directly funds local mental illness research at the UNC-Chapel Hill Department of Psychiatry. And, as critically, it helps call attention to the stigma and significance of these often invisible illnesses, which now due to the pandemic affect as many as 1 in 3 American adults.

There is still time to register or donate!

Retirement looks good on you Tom! Thank you for 17 amazing years! Tom Lynch built our accounting department into what it is today, his leadership, expertise, and guidance has had a profound impact on APC. Enjoy this next chapter Tom, and we hope you'll still visit!

This week we celebrate an extraordinary milestone - 19 remarkable years of dedication and unwavering service from our esteemed Accounting Controller Martina Schneider. 🎉🥳Your journey with APC has been a testament to your unwavering commitment, expertise, and the profound impact you've had on our organization's financial health.

Thank you for 19 incredible years!

Have you ever wondered how the epic Star Wars universe was created? Well, it's not just the work of Hollywood magic! IT and engineering have played a significant role in bringing this fantasy world to life.

From designing and building the complex sets and props, to developing the special effects that make lightsabers and blasters look so realistic, technology has been a critical component in the making of Star Wars.

Furthermore, the use of 3D printing and virtual reality technology has allowed the creators to visualize and build their ideas in a more efficient and cost-effective way.

It's amazing to see how far technology has come, and how it has helped make something as incredible as the Star Wars universe a reality. May the force be with IT and engineering! 🚀✨

Hey, everyone! 👋🏽

As a staffing partner, we wanted to share some thoughts on the importance of hiring the right people for your team.

Recruiting isn't just about finding someone with the right skills and qualifications. It's about finding someone who fits in with your company culture, shares your values, and is committed to your mission.

When you find the right person, you end up with a team that works well together, is motivated and engaged, and can achieve great things. But when you get it wrong, it can lead to turnover, conflicts, and a whole lot of wasted time and resources.

So, whether you're in HR, a hiring manager, or just someone who cares about building great teams, remember that finding the right fit is a critical part of any organization's success. Take the time to find the right people, invest in their growth and development, and watch as your team flourishes. 💪🏽

Congratulations to Taylor Anderson for being promoted to Account Director and celebrating her 3-year anniversary at APC. Thanks for all you do Taylor!
